Despite the success of several Chinese fighters the country has still been slow to accept the sport of professional boxing. We're hoping that the acceptance will speed up as the country starts to host more cards, like the one that's being shown on Saturday.

Live at the EXPO Garden Hotel, Kunming there is a 6 bout card courtesy of Zovi Boxing Promotions. Whilst the card lacks names (and even quality to be honest) it's still good to see action in China.

The card appears likely to open with a female fight as China's own Li Yun Ting (0-4) fights at home for the first time and takes on Indian youngster Naina Rani (0-0) in a 4 round bout. Ting has been stopped in all 4 of her bouts so far, though she now has 18 rounds of experience under her belt including 5 rounds with WIBA Minimumweight champion Samson Tor Buamas.

The card also features the debut of Super Featherweight Li Xiang (0-0) who takes on Naina Rani's compatriot Neeraj Goyat (0-1-1) who actually returns to the site of his professional debut from way back in November 2011.

The other 4 bouts all look a bit more promising as Chinese fighters face more established visitors.

On paper however the best match up sees 22 year old Qiu Xiao Jun (6-2, 3) taking on Indonesian journeyman Falazona Fidal (20-35-1, 7). Jun looks to be the most promising fighter on the card and has experience in fighter in Japan, Thailand and Singapore. Although both of Jun's losses have come to Jonathan Baat they've both been competitive and the youngster is improving, but Fidal may have a little bit too much for him at the present moment. Certainly a very interesting bout.In Japan former 2-weight world champion Daiki Kameda (27-3, 17) continues his search for a 3rd divisional title. The former WBA Flyweight and Super Flyweight world champion, now campaigning between Bantamweight and Super Bantamweight, takes on Mexican Aaron Bobadilla (9-2, 7). We're sure their will be more bouts on the card but at the moment this is the only one that we know of.

In international action Japanese fighters are competiting in both Mexico and the US.

In Mexico Hiroshi Nakamori (33-5-1, 20), a 2-time Japanese title challenger, faces former multi-weight world champion Humberto Soto (60-8-2-1, 34). Soto enters this bout as a big favourite though the 33 year old is an aging fighter and has already been in 71 fights and 499 rounds as a professional. With the WBC International Silver Light Welterweight title on the line Nakamori will know that a victory will be by far the biggest of his career and we expect him to put up a good effort even if he can't defeat Soto.

In the US the unbeaten Yoshihiro Kamegai (22-0-1, 19) fights for the 3rd time stateside as he takes on former "interim" world champion Johan Perez (16-1-1-1, 12). This bout, for the vacant WBA International welterweight title, is one of those rare "B level" match ups that look amazing and is a genuine 50-50. We do favour Kamegai, though wouldn't be shocked if Perez defeated him.

Both the Kamagai and the Nakamori fights will be televised in the west and hopefully it won't be that hard to get to watch them live.

Thai's are in action again today as Bungnamtao plays host to a highly promising card with several titles on the line and some oddly interesting match ups.

The main event is the WBC Asian Boxing Council (ABCO) Featherweight title bout which sees the unbeaten Bualuang OnesongchaiGym (10-0, 4) attempts to make the second defense of the belt as he takes on Filipino challenger Rodynie Rafol (10-3-2, 4). This, on paper looks to be a good test for Bualuang who should come through it well enough but not completely have things his own way.

In female action Buakaew OnesongchaiGym (5-1-1) attempts to claim the female WBC Asian Boxing Council (ABCO) Flyweight title as she faces former world title contender Norj Guro (6-2-1, 4) from the Philippines. Although the Filipino is the slight under-dog she has faced better competition and losses to Riyo Togo and Hee-Jung Yuh (both away from home) are nothing to be ashamed about.

In the most notable of the none title bouts Susu Sithjadeang (5-2, 2) faces Petchwanchai Sor Visetkit (7-3, 4) in a rubber match. The two who faced off twice in 2012 each hold a record of 1-1 with each other and this bout should, hopefully, let them settle the score.

Fonluang Sor Singyu (5-3, 3) will look to score his second victory of the year as he goes up against Saksri Twins Gym (0-1). Although Sor Singyu isn't expected to go far the 24 year old should manage to come out victorious here.

In probably the least interesting bout of the day Iranian born Cruiserweight Mohammadali Bayat Farid (3-0, 3) fights for the 3rd time in just a few weeks as he takes on Saisilek Por Suwan (0-1) in a scheduled 6 rounder. To date Farid has fought just 5 rounds whilst Por Suwan has just 2 rounds of professional experience under his belt. We don't expect any but a stoppage by Farid.
